Indie games have reportedly been popping up without the proper permissions on GameStop's new NFT marketplace, and developers are not happy about it.

In a new Ars Technica report, it was alleged that Nathan Ello, who created the NiFTy Arcade collection with indie games like Worm Nom Nom, Galactic Wars, and Rogue Fleet, didn't seek out the original creators' nod for at least two of the games (Worm Nom Nom and Galactic Wars).

Ello said he attempted to only include open-source games approved for commercial use in his NFT collection, but he clearly did not do enough research. Worm Nom Nom's creative commons license is listed on its itch.io page, and its engine, PICO-8, also requires users to get the creator's agreement before any use occurs.

After facing pushback, Ello offered all of the NFT sales--a total of $55K as of July 15--to the original developers, and took down the NiFTy collection from GameStop's NFT marketplace. But developers said these actions come too little too late. "My work was sold for profit without my consent," Breakout Hero developer Kyrstian Majewski said. "Even if somebody wanted to return the money they made off my work, it would be in the form of some shitty Crypto anyway."

Ello can't mint on the GameStop NFT marketplace anymore until he addresses the permission issues, but there remains a glaring issue: NiFTy games can't be removed from the blockchain and can be sold in other marketplaces.

NFTs have often been touted as "beneficial" for artists and creatives, but cases where a creators' work gets minted without permission are a dime-a-dozen. There are many pieces of stolen artworks uploaded to OpenSea, and artists have trouble taking them down due to the sheer volume of theft and the platform's unresponsiveness.

It's troubling that GameStop doesn't appear to have implemented takedown or screening service to catch cases of theft. The company did not respond to Ars Technica's request for comment, so it remains to be seen how GameStop, going forward, will prevent cases like this one from happening again.

No, I think it's because you posted the video of someone actively getting stabbed. Even though there was no gore, what was shown can technically be considered gruesome. That's my guess as to why you were suspended and the topic removed.

Nah it was removed because a mod thought someone got "literally killed" and is just spreading false information about it now since the stabbed is still alive

Justified at first but once that dudes back was turned stabbing him in the back might have, legally speaking at least, been a little far.

Primary goal should be to subdue, not kill

They should train cashiers to subdue and not kill, but it seems the robber have survived.

They lived but some people are saying they got murdered

How much money do we need to spend on stopping petty bullshit that's nonviolent?

Should we just employ police officers only when they receive a call for violent crimes?

So 100% of their calls should be violent crimes and gun violence is what TC wants. All of the other calls should be filtered to a robot.

Openings:

S2>S1>S3

EDs:

S1>S3>S2

If you bought you would've made money

Why they gotta take 2 fuckin years to do something that takes like 90 days to shoot?

Because shooting is everything

Topic that TC made where 4/5 posts are him rambling like a conspiracy theorist is definitely not part of his personality:

Holy moly @sexypwnstar you mad bro???

cope, seethe; rage type and misspell words lmao

Oh fuck it just came down below $35, it's coming!

It just went down another $0.20

IT'S ANOTHER SHORT LADDER ATTACK!!!

Market crashing is not goos for gme

The idea is shorters liquidate other assets to pay off interest

Omg, those fuckers! They're literally going to tank the entire market just to pay off their supposed short interest instead of cutting their losses like the dumbass bagholders, you'd think they'd be smarter than that!

What an odd narrative

GME is up because idiot apez keep buying is your claim

But it is also going to zero and will stay there

Which is it? Cant be both.

That's your narrative from your opening post, it's either apes bring the stock up or shorters bring it down

obviously shorters are going to make it near zero while the apes are buying the SWEET SWEET DIPS hoping it will go back up, there's no way they're taking hold of some heavy ass bags!

Somehow the market crashing is good for GME; the shorts have been shorting EVERYTHING from Apple to Netflix

Somehow the China Evergrande falling down is good for GME

POWER TO THE PLAYERS!

You see they shorted this company real good, obviously beat the retail! lmao

IT'S ANOTHER SHORT LADDER ATTACK!!!

Oh they have plenty to offer

Can't afford those stock prices before, definitely can afford these to support the company now! Will be a good collectors item that depreciates in value

WingsOfGood posted...

Ah yes people are just exiting as they have been for the last almost 2 years

This time they holding the bag

For sure!

Ah yes, big props to those dumba- I mean apes holding the line having bought at $200+, sure hope they didn't sell and cut their losses because it's surely going to hit those highs any day now!

For sure!

WingsOfGood posted...

Nah it is not over. Stock split went into effect today making 1 share at ~$150 to divide into 4 $37 stocks.

Now, will the "accursed memers!" run it up to $50 a pop?
Or will the shorters drop it to $20 a pop?

Ahh yes, all price action that goes down is shorting and not people/cultists selling

Eat anything, eat poison, make it my career

Not into this weeb shit

Just because they're LGBTQIA+ and for human rights doesn't allow you to cry and have a meltdown on the first meeting

Fucking good, deserved

Cocytus posted...

Yeah but talk about a risk...

And it's at 24k now.

A 40% gain.

In like a month if you had invested.

It's going to go the way of the Hong Kong/China conflict

It's okay, but the game is kinda bullshit in that you just randomly die in endgame fights

A lot of people who are actual paying customers and experienced it seem to welcome it.

Yet we're supposed to take the fake outrage of a non-paying customer as TC as fuel

RAGE RAGE RAGE

Why would I use their router?

JP wins with chicken assist

Hopefully his friend who is a girl doesn't leave him too

If you bought the ~$17,000 dip a few weeks or a month back you'd have made a >30% gain if you sold now

He's back!

Stop paying for them and have them have a stockpile they can't get rid of

He's chronically shitting on his keyboard and posting on CE after

You guys know that him staying away from here isn't going to make him better, right? He's going to degenerate further like Caution did all those years ago. He'll end up much the same, honestly he's already like that in a lot of ways.

Not that the banning isn't 100% deserved, just saying it's not "good for him too."

Degenerate further without his account? Lmao stop apologizing for his shit. He stays the same as he is now or gets better, then it's a win win for everyone as we don't have to put up with his shit or see it anymore.

That sounds like a bullshit moderation

Thanks Maplestory

Where's Vy? Definitely his biggest enabler and marker

It's crazy how hard it is for some users to refrain from being a shitposter and voicing their horrible views every chance they can get.

Like, he just couldn't stop himself for not even a day when he got off his purgatory.

Close it and you can mistake it for a 9

And blocked #3!
